because dansup/pixelfed is making me increasingly uncomfortable AND because there are no data export tools for pixelfed, i made one that exports to an 11ty-compatible format.

@zicklepop Did he do a new thing or are we still waiting for a third broken hinge for the door to fall off after the jackboot thing and the weird tirade thing

@Kye @zicklepop What was the jackboot thing?

@erosdiscordia @zicklepop Called for violent suppression of striking postal workers, played it off as a joke and deleted the posts later.

@Kye @zicklepop What the absolute fuck.

Nothing about that is okay.

Approximately when was this, do you know? And any chance you have a screenshot or link laying around? I believe you, just like to have proof for others if they want it.

@erosdiscordia @zicklepop I didn't think to screenshot the posts and haven't been able to find screenshots others made

@kye@tech.lgbt @erosdiscordia@onycha.monster It was during the Canadian postal strike (you can look up the timeline of that one, but it ended a couple weeks before xmas).

iirc the context was that he was waiting on some financial support from programs (possibly gov't related), and those cheques were literally in the mail. The mail which had been put to a stop due to the strike.

It's an extremely bad take considering that Canada Post workers union had wanted to maintain limited service throughout the strike, but the government ordered a full lockout of the postal employees.

Likewise, I have no screenshots, only what I saw here with my own two eyes.
